I love it. Its fast, lean and completely stable.

Its not that I hate vista. Its ok and definitely a graphic upgrade. I just find that most of its features are completely redundant or useless.

I originally bought vista for DX10 support and so I could test my tri-sli rig. I eventually realized that DX10 is pointless at this time.

True and the size of the icons and menus are so silly...
Graphical upgrade? an OS don't need a flashy visual, it need a flashy functionality.
